Every DD can start a GR to change the rules. To drop non-free. To
$whatever do with it.

Whose common sense? Ive heard that those radical islamistic people
actually think it very common sense for their women to not have any
rights, a position the common sense as usually taken in the western
world doesnt follow.

They are fine to do this (well, besides I think them idiots for writing
new licenses). Its idiotic, yes, but thats something different. People
are even fine to package that up for non-free. As long as Debian can
distribute it. Whoever uses it has to check the license, and then either
follow it or not use it.

My dislike of Flash, PHP, KDE, GNOME, cdbs is well known. All of those fulfil
non-free (and contrib and main) criteria. I think they should not be in
the archive.
Sorry, no, they stay.
